if you haven’t yet, try getting captured by her during the fight with the lake monster (I believe the easiest way is to paddle out and try to help Otter when he tries to distract the monster). After you’ve been captured there’s quite a few scenes where you can talk with her if you choose not to escape. :wink:

This game is a wonderful and charming read, and I’ve been meaning to review it for a while. I found it on the forum before I had an actual account here, so I just quietly followed it from the shadows. Since, I don’t really know the legend, and therefore have no real frame of reference, I have no idea what’s going to happen later on, but I am excited to see where the story goes!

By the way, Dog is my favorite character, hands down. Grumpy father figures that deep down care no matter how hard they try not to always melt my heart.

LOVE this game! You’re a great author. I have read two of your wip and I really love it. Both of it. I can’t wait for the next update and once again you’re AWESOME!!

Congrats :grin: :dragon:

I got 2 questions though

  1. Was the last update really in February?
  2. If we befriend the mermaid do we get a refund on all the life she has taken from us so far?

  1. Yes unfortunately. I started splitting my attention between way too many WIP’s so none of them were getting completed and I’m trying to keep on track with only 1-2 active ones at a time. (Just got Oedipus finished, so will pick up one of my other projects soon.) This one’ll definitely get finished sooner or later, it’s probably my favorite of the 3 big WIPs I’ve got remaining, but it has gone on hold for the moment (which is why the last update is in Feb. If you come across anything that’s broken, wrong or any other ideas/comments, let me know if you like though. I’m keeping any comments with the game for when I finish it.) When I hopefully have a bit more time to write later this year, I’m going to be getting stuck into one of my larger WIPs again (just don’t have the time to do it properly right now,) but TBH Abysm’s Veil will probably get done before this one though as it’s closer to completion.

  2. The mermaid hasn’t actually had you bound for very long so far, so the damage in terms of life loss is currently fairly low. If you stay longer though…

So does the mark only work in her cave thingy or are we losing time as long as its still on our arm

The effects can weaken with distance but doesn’t free you completely. So yep, you’re much better off without it.

Wow, the mermaid prisoner romance is exquisite, I can’t wait to see how it will turn out in the future!

How do I become the mermaids prisoner?

There’s a few ways but easiest is to choose not to look for the prince/princess and go downstream at the bridge away from the lake, and keep making choices to that end until you reach the beach. Hope that helps @Tpryor :slight_smile:
